I have declined comment on any of these rib ticklers as Dianne is my Mums name. We are a close family but gentlemen please....

Inglewood Inn last night, always a top feed. Bit pricy for a pub but worth it. Just had a chicken parmy, but quality bit of bird, thick and juicy. Missus went the Pear, Prosciutto and Blue Cheese Pizza and loved it. Sat out on the deck looking over the garden and the hills, beautiful. $60 for both meals, a pint of James Squire and a coke.

Vies with the Earl of Leicester as my favourite pub.

You might as well have just put the runners on and trained with us pal.

I drove in and had a quick look on my way home, as I think we're using it for a trial.

I didn't get the urge to join you, watching the sprints was making me tired enough.

Day 20 of not smoking today and as reward Mrs Wristy is taking me to Cardone's on Jetty Rd. tonight. Menu looks good. 2 for 1 on the Gold card too also gets me a touch hard :D

Has anyone been, any recommendations if so?

Cardones was tremendous. 2 for 1 on the Gold card meant the cost was reasonable also.

Service was friendly, efficient and overall excellent.

Entree was good albeit we only had bread and that oil and balsamic dipping bowl. $10

Mrs had some sort of Salmon and was as good as a Salmon as I had tried, her accompanying salad, roast potatoes and other were all flavour filled adventures of the mouth.$32

I had rib eye beef with prawns and veg in some jiz or is that jus. It was superb. Cooked perfectly and everything even down to the bed of pumpkin was a taste sensation.$39

Only fault was that if you were real hungry the main courses are not huge but for flavour, taste and presentation they were spot on.

9/10. Will return for a special occasion.

Yes, Wednesday night.

Had Coles Rissolses with a mash potato and pumpkin blend accompanied by broccoli. Strawberries and cream for dessert

Service was good but the waitress wouldn't shut up during the meal, cost was around $12 for the both of us. Entertainment book did not work

7.5/10

Yep do it. They look after you, I took a friend there for their birthday and when booking they asked if it was a special occasion. They gave us a free glass of bubbles each and free garlic bread when we arrived.

I found they used a bit too much salt on everything, but it was still delicious.

went to British India again last night, had a banquet for 7 of us.

Food is excellent. quite different from the "standard" indian fare.

we had the more expensive banquet, which was $45 a head, but the food was great. highlights were the beef cheeks which were really tender, and the shepherd's pie.

One interesting thing which is the first time it has happened to me, is that when we had finished the banquet, the waitress asked if we wanted any more food, FREE! so we ordered three more mains for us to share, and we kind of struggled through half of it, mostly because we felt guilty about ordering more then not finishing it!

entertainment card worked, but i think it is capped, because we only got about $40 off the total bill even though we had 3 cards.

Still though, food was excellent, would go back.

8.5/10

To be honest I don't actually know where the rissoles were from the Coles bit was just a touch of comedy but they were damn tasty, well prepared and on the table with the accompanying meal and dessert without me having to lift a finger. 7.5 was the overall experience :) Could have been an 8.5 is she didn't feel so compelled to enquire about every moment of my day. :D
